Abstract
Summary: A 10-year review of 17 patients with amebic abscess of the liver is presented. In our patients, a clinical picture occurred consistently enough to make one strongly suspect amebic liver abscess. Usually, the patient was a male with a 2- to 4-month history of weight loss, and right pleuritic or right upper quadrant pain. During examination, fever, signs of a right pleural effusion, and a large tender liver were found. Once a diagnosis is suspected, definitive steps should be taken to demonstrate an abscess, since this potentially fatal disease is curable.
